Nazis doing warcrimes. Shocker!

This is one of the US’s partners in the war:

America loves Nazis, whether they’re Ukrainian Neonazis or Zionazis.

Fascists are nationalists. Fascists from different nations fighting each other isn’t really infighting, that’s just like, regular fighting.

Not something we should be fueling at any rate. Heaven forbid anyone asks about a peace plan that isn’t total victory, though.

Real answer:

Moderating a porn forum is a lot of work for volunteers, because if they fuck up children can get hurt and people can go to prison etc.

Porn boards should be private with paid subscriptions to pay moderators.

Or public utilities. That’d work too.

Criticisms of Bitcoin didn’t really become popular until years after its introduction. Give it time.

So-called “AI” is worthless too so they’ll get their turn.

Democrats will tell you they’re not leftists.

Ask Joe Biden if he is a leftist, what do you think he’d say? Nanci Pelosi? Chuck Schemer? Hilary Clinton? Barack Obama?

queermunist , 1 month ago

The rest of the big tent won’t call themselves leftists either. They’ll say they’re “”“progressive”“” instead.

And if the progressives get too uppity then AIPAC or some other rightist faction will get rid of them.

EDIT No, wait, they’d already be included. nvm 👍

You mean how they keep forgiving billions of dollars in loans that they’re using to build infrastructure and industrial capacity?

How terrible!

Contest that with the IMF, which bleeds countries dry until they have to auction off all their state assets and impose brutal austerity onto the people in order to repay their loans.

C’mon

he can do literally anything now wtf

queermunist , 1 month ago

He could drone strike all his enemies and their families to the third generation. He can do anything in an official capacity and there’s literally nothing stopping him.

queermunist , 1 month ago

Well, no, that doesn’t sound official.

He could drone strike Trump though.

With this ruling Biden can “clear” the Judicial bench and nominate new Justices, who would then reverse this ruling. One and done.

Now if you’re worried about civil war, yeah, that’s a legitimate concern. I’m pretty sure this ruling already puts us on the path towards civil war, though? As soon as we have another Republican president they’re just going to start killing people!

Is your answer to just never elect another Republican president? I hope you can see why that’s not going to work in the long run!

queermunist , 1 month ago

This ruling gives him the power to do basically anything as long as it’s through the office of the president.

And hey, if he “clears” the bench and replaced them with better Justices then the new Court can just decide to not hear challenges to his actions clearing the bench. Or, if they heard it, make a special ruling i.e. it was legal this one time but actually unconstitutional every time going forward. Or even rule that he broke the law and force him to resign, but still not reinstate the previous Justices. Lots of options for solving this problem.

queermunist , 1 month ago

Killing a non combatant for no reason even if the commander in chief gives the order might be a bit of a problem under the ucmj.

Kill them too. 🤷‍♀️

Also I think a drone strike would be more effective. Biden knows where they live, after all.

queermunist , 1 month ago

🙄

The Court just gave him the power to kill anyone he wants. Not my fault that it’s extremely fucking stupid!

Tea, but no one mentioned the huge drawback that needs to be said.

Do not drink black tea on an empty stomach. It causes nauseation and you might throw up. I know I always do.

Herbal teas are safe tho

queermunist , 1 month ago

Yeah some people are more sensitive - it’s the tannins that do it.

I’m fine if the tea has a splash of creamer or something, but straight black tea makes me puke lol

queermunist , 1 month ago

Yes not everyone gets this evidently! There’s a large subset of the population that is sickened by the tannins on the tea, but evidently y’all can just chug that shit and be fine? Wild.

Another boneheaded triangulation move from Biden. Stop giving ground to the enemy. All they do is use your compromise as a starting point to force further compromise. Give them nothing.

The moderate position between medical science and ideology is still nonsense.

I don’t care if y’all vote for Biden. Do what you think is best, and let me do what I think is best.

queermunist , 2 months ago (edited 2 months ago)

When Trump wins it will be your fault for not forcing Biden to drop out. Ride-or-die Biden cultists are following the leader off a cliff when they should be calling for Biden to resign now (holy SHIT he needs to resign now, this man is not able to perform his job didn’t you see?!) and for someone else to replace him at the Convention.

Do whatever you want, but don’t try to blame me for trying to force America to vote for a nursing home patient.

queermunist , 2 months ago (edited 2 months ago)

No, our option is to voice our displeasure and force the Party to capitulate to our demands.

Stop just laying down and letting them have their way with you. It’s embarrassing.

EDIT I don’t mean this to be an attack, but I just can’t get over how peasant-like your mindset is. “All we can do is support m’lord and 'ave faith in his Court, ours is not to question.” Why won’t you even try to change anything? When did you give up entirely on the concept of politics? We need to rise up and resist, not meekly obey!

queermunist , 2 months ago

I’m not “giving up”, I simply recognize the situation for what it is. I’m a realist, not a delusionist. Our situation is fucked either way, and the only choice we have is laid out plainly in front of us. We have the option of bad, or worse. I know what I’m choosing.

You are giving up, regardless of your reasoning. You think good things are impossible and we should just settle for less bad things.

This only guarantees that the worst outcome becomes inevitable. You create a shield for Democrats to hide behind that allows them to ignore calls from their base, which in turn obliterates voter enthusiasm and participation. When no one shows up to vote for your cynical candidates you have no one but yourself to blame.

You need to join us in forrcing the Democratic Party to listen to constituents or Republicans are going to win.

queermunist , 2 months ago

If Biden is the nominee the Democrats are going to lose.

There’s still time before the Convention! We can still fix this!

And you won’t because you’re a cynic and have given up.

Here’s a hint: I think a peace deal to end the war in Ukraine should involve a new referendum organized and monitored by an impartial body (so not one picked by either Russia or NATO) before I was comfortable with Crimea or other parts of Eastern Ukraine joining Russia.

It’s a good compromise because it leaves everyone unhappy.

queermunist , 2 months ago

Your “compromise” is letting the mugger only take half of your wallet.

People aren’t property, you don’t get to keep them just because you own them. They have self determination.

Are you currently in Crimea? Other parts of Ukraine? Is this really your call?

No, it’s theirs, which is why I want them to have a choice! I’m the one that wants to let them choose whether they join Russia or stay with Ukraine. You’re the one that wants to hold them against their will if they truly want to leave.

I’d be comfortable with allowing them to do what they want. Why do you not want the same?

queermunist , 2 months ago

Zelenski wants guns and bullets. What do the People want? Do Crimeans want the US to give Ukraine more guns and bullets? Or do they not count for some reason?

queermunist , 2 months ago

Interesting. How about a counter-offer? Russia gets the fuck off the Ukraine, pays reparations, and maybe in a decade or so of being nice the rest of the world starts trading with them.

The rest of the world is trading with them. It’s just the NATO bloc that has cut them off, which is now bifurcating the global economy. It’s one of the main reasons for inflation all throughout the West, because our currencies are now not being used by a growing segment of the world economy.

Your counteroffer isn’t happening and if we keep this up things will only get worse. We can’t dictate terms. We have to negotiate.

Ukraine has/had an imperfect government, that doesn’t mean they deserve to be invaded.

Ukraine had a pro-Western revolution/coup that removed Russian allies and replaced them with NATO allies. It doesn’t matter if they “deserve” to be invaded (I don’t think they deserved it, for the record), Russia merely did what was in it’s geopolitical interests.

Fuck Putin and fuck his supporters and fuck anyone who both sides this crap.

The bombs would run out if Biden stopped giving them more - Israel itself has admitted they need the US to do the genocide.

It’s called agitation. I don’t really care who the president will be. What I care about is people realizing that our government is evil.
